BTW, not that I mind that you're replacing the rank insignia that I created, but unless you created the new ones, you need to have the creator's permission to use the new ones, AND you need to credit him/her.

Umm... where are those pips from? I'm gonna revert the Ronin roster for now (I personally like Dress uniform pips but still, the ones on the roster were closest to canon that I know) and correct the date at the bottom, but if you can dig up a credit like Varaan said... ;) - [[User:Salak|<font color="336600">Lt.JG Salak</font>]] [[Image:Ronin.jpg|USS Ronin|35px]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 11:12, 13 April 2007 (CDT)

Hey Rich, why do you set the Pips templates to float right? They seem to pretty much always be used in tables where they're alone in their own boxes, so it doesn't seem to make much difference there, and when they float right in my Sidebar template it messes it up. Just trying to understand. -[[User:Jackford B. Kolk|Kit Kizito]] ([[User talk:Jackford B. Kolk|talk]]) 09:35, 7 August 2014 (CDT)

==Ronny crew hist==
|UserName=Jackford B. Kolk
Ta for catching the rank mistakes. Is Parkers CMO status official? If so, the Roster needs updating. If not, crew hist should be reverted back to show her only as a Medical officer. It's a technicality I know, but Salak was the only engineer on Wallace for several months before he bacame CEO so it's not a given that the status is correct. Consistancy between the pages would be nice. Ta again - [[User:Salak|<font color="336600">Jay</font>]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 22:06, 19 April 2007 (CDT)

:Oh, and whilst I'm at it, you thought of using the sandbox (linked from main page) to play with table codes, get them looking how you like before implementing?

::[[118Wiki:Sand_Box]], if you put the table there, play with the coding on there then copy the new table code across to the relevent page when you're happy with it, saves the actual page being the testing ground... As for Parker, just checked again and can't see the discrepancy I referred to the other day.

==Pips==
Well as long as the site is mentioned somewhere. For those you tweaked, credit as "based on pips from [http://www.whateveritis.com www.whateveritis.com]" and for those straight across, just say "Pips originally from ...". Admittedly, i'm no good at crediting the pips I use either, keep forgetting (but I do credit at least on a subpage of my profile where all my uploaded pics are viewable), but RPG's generally pinch pics off other sites without permission or credit and they don't like it so if we at least try to credit on one page or even better, on the pic page, eg [[:Image:Nav-wallace.jpg]]. Probably not the best example as the credited site sadly no longer exists but still.... - [[User:Salak|<font color="336600">Jay</font>]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 12:09, 21 April 2007 (CDT)
 
== Rosters again... ==
 
It's 3am here and I'm tired so I'll try and be quick. I'm still hearing complaints about edits to roster pages, which mainly seem to be made by yourself... the pip changes, the colours, etc... As a general rule of thumb, pages related to a vessel are maintained by that vessels crew.
 
Any changes should really be run through that ships CO or whoever on that vessel is (usually informally) responsible for their wiki page (For example, Cody on Indy-A, Toni on Challenger, me on the retired Wallace). I personnally tend to leave the busiest ships to their crews anyway out of courtesy and allow them to do as they wish with one or two exceptions (e.g. Nav menu colours). Sticking to inactive vessels (no crew to edit the wiki) or the less wiki-active vessels (see Discovery-B's unbuilt wiki section) means fewer complaints from CO's and XO's if any at all ;)
 
Ronin is fair game as that's your ship (and technically mine), as are the encyclopedia articles, your character articles, your NPC articles, etc... Just please refrain from editing the other ships rosters. - [[User:Salak|<font color="336600">Jay</font>]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 21:09, 30 April 2007 (CDT)
 
:That's okay, now you know. By the way, I still treat the Wallace section as my own given I built it from scratch (noticing it still had no website after nearly a year out of dock) when I was it's Chief Engineer a few years back. If you want to use any of the inactive vessels, I'd recommend it NOT be the Wallace ;) - [[User:Salak|<font color="336600">Jay</font>]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 16:43, 1 May 2007 (CDT)
 
:Hi Jackford - I don't mind you modifying crew rosters, but I would really apprecite a note so I can update my back-up files (in that off-chance something happens, like a crash... so it doesn't take me 1-2 hours to recode). ;-) Thanks. [[User:DCody|DCody]] 19:43, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 
== Crew History ==
 
Don't mind filing people under various sections but it doesn't fit with past practice and the blurb at the top which covers what I've done with such pages in the past. If you want to change how people are filed then fine but you'll need to change the blurb at the top too and the Ronin has a lot of history to go over to list everyone in every department they've been in. - [[User:Salak|<font color="336600">Jay</font>]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 13:10, 12 May 2007 (CDT)
 
==Enlisted rankings==
Just so you're aware, in regards to the change you made in the enlisted rankings, "Yeoman" is not a rank but a position. So only people doing the Yeoman job would be referred to as Yeoman, not anyone of that rank. -[[User:Varaan|Varaan]] 07:52, 16 May 2007 (CDT)

== Hi again... Crew Roster again... ==
 
Did Idril ask for the photos there? Just if they're anywhere, it should really be the characters pages. If they're on the crew roster page, there's got to be a better way of laying it out then that? Putting them into the table would probably make it far longer. I'll try resizing so they're all the same height though, not too hard. - [[User:Salak|<font color="336600">Jay</font>]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 08:31, 30 May 2007 (CDT)

I've just reverted your blanking of it, thought I should explain why. Although it may not seem relevant, it's a reminder to others who may change it, they can learn from the point previously raised. It's relevant discussion to the page, so no reason to lose it.

Jack, the master roster on the Ronin is looking a bit dodgy and is overlapping the links on the righthand side. Not sure what the problem is. [[User:Hutch|Hutch]] 19:37, 2 October 2007 (CDT)
:The nav menu always goes on top and it's obscuring the position column of the table. You need to make the roster narrower, maybe change "Lieutenant Junior Grade" to "Lieutenant JG" (you've not spelt "Lieutenant Commander" out after all) and abbreviate HCO a tad for starters. - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.JG Salak</font>]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 09:44, 3 October 2007 (CDT)

== Your PNPC ==
== Upgrade issues with TOC class ==
 
Hi!
 
Thanks for your message. I am really surprise by this and I went through the edits to find out what I did because I honestly don't remember messing with a PNPC. My guess is that it is because I was still relatively new to the fleet by the time of the first edit and somebody probably listed your PNPC on the Thunder's NPC roster and so I converted it over to that. The only changes I see is that I changed it from Endevour to the Thunder-A and then added the new wiki trimmings to the character.
 
First of all, I apologize. I honestly do not see how I made such a mistake, but it's there in the logs. She's all yours and glad you found her. I know she was never simmed on the Embassy as the name is not familiar to me.
 
Again, apologies for that. She was taken good care of though. :) [[User:Nugra|Nugra]] ([[User talk:Nugra|talk]]) 08:02, 5 August 2014 (CDT)

== Crew History Table issue ==


== pip templates ==
Took a look. It's actually not an alignment issue. What's going on is that your table is putting in another row for that last column even when you haven't specified anything because the "hidden" additional rank and date tables are adding cells. Thus, I removed all possible line breaks to prevent that. However, then there was an issue with creating new line breaks if a third or fourth rank was called for. This is a limitation with the wiki coding, but I've placed a workaround by inserting a hidden character to force a line break.

Hello again! I have reverted some of the edits you made to the previous pip templates that removed the float right markup.

No worries! I think your new template is pretty cool, and I am a full proponent of people being bold in trying new things on the wiki. I also despise the unhealthy attitude of taking ownership of parts of the wiki. With that said, could I ask that if you do change any of the [[:Category:Wiki System Templates|Wiki system templates]] that you leave a message letting me know.

Used a different invisible character (&#8203;). Seems to be working now. ♫ Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman, Chief of Wiki Operations 09:52, 10 November 2014 (CST)

LCARS Sidebar Template

Wondering, were you going to include the {{Crop}} functionality in your sidebar templates? I really like using your templates, but the crop template to get a close-up doesn't seem to work without leaving [[Image]] and 100px at the beginning and end of the IMAGE line.

Well, IMO, putting in {{Crop|ImageName.png|width|height|vert|horiz|zoom|link}} myself might be the simpler option. I don't want to overly complicate things for you. Dr. Skyfire (talk) 09:30, 25 November 2014 (CST)
Tried it, tested the model here. Don't think it worked. Dr. Skyfire (talk) 10:17, 25 November 2014 (CST)

Pips template: FC Cadet 2nd Class-4th class

Heyo. Wanted to know if there were plans to update the pips template with Cadet 2nd through 4th class images in blue, as these don't seem to work. I just tried it, and got a broken link. I like this pip style, and was idly curious. Dr. Skyfire (talk) 10:43, 15 November 2014 (CST)

CHEntry template

So, where do you place the "Notes" information? You explain the RTREntry stuff on the RoundedTable page, but not the CHEntry stuff. Just wondering. -Varaan (talk) 11:39, 1 April 2015 (CDT)
